Taylor is officially off of the ventilator! She is breathing with assistance from the pacer 24 hours a day. Taylor has transitioned well to the pacer and enjoys travelling around the hospital without her respiratory therapist and ventilator in tow.
Taylor continues to join in the activities on the second floor. The other day she attended a performance by the Sacramento Ballet Company. She also got a visit from a couple players on the Giants and even has her very own baseball hat.
Now that Taylor no longer relies on the ventilator to breath, there is talk of moving her from the ICU to a room on the third floor. Her new room would be less restrictive than the ICU and she would even get to attend school at Shriner's.
A dinner/dance fundraiser for Taylor is scheduled for May 5, 2007 in Woodland at the Elk's Lodge. Information on where to get tickets, time, locations, etc. will follow as the date of the event nears.
Taylor appreciates all of your e-mails, visits, and phone calls. Thanks for your continued support.

Taylor,
I can't believe you are already off of the ventilator! I know you are strong and determined- but man! that was fast. That is so cool that you got to see a ballet performance, that must have been really fun! And you got to meet some of the Giants - you have been busy. I bet you are excited to start school, and get to practice your ABCs. Kris and I are, as always, so proud of you and completely blown away by your strength and spirit. Love, Katie
